Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of localtime.asearchparty.com (the “Site”), operated by Heave LLC, doing business as Search Party (“Search Party,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), a California limited liability company with a mailing address of PO Box 4039, Idyllwild, CA 92549. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Local Time is an editorial travel series. The Site presents the work of the series and serves as a point of contact for prospective destination partners. The Site is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to enter into any contract or partnership. Any engagement with Search Party is governed by a separate written agreement.

You may access and view the Site for your personal, non-commercial use, and for the purpose of evaluating a potential business relationship with us. You agree not to:

• Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law or these Terms;
• Scrape, harvest, or otherwise extract data from the Site by automated means without our prior written consent;
• Attempt to interfere with, disrupt, or impair the Site, our servers, or the networks on which the Site is hosted;
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Site or any related systems;
• Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information through any form on the Site;
• Use the contact form to send unsolicited commercial messages or other communications prohibited by law.

The Site and its content — including the Local Time name and mark, the Search Party name and mark, photography, video, text, graphics, page layouts, and code — are owned by Search Party or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Except as expressly permitted in these Terms, you may not copy, modify, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any content from the Site without our prior written permission.

The Site may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Search Party. We do not endorse and are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party site. Your interactions with any third-party site are governed by that site’s own terms and privacy policy.

The Site and all content, materials, and information made available through the Site are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranty of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Search Party disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components, or that any defects will be corrected. Any reliance you place on information made available through the Site is strictly at your own risk.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will Search Party or its officers, members, employees, agents, or service providers be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or in connection with your access to or use of the Site, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site will not exceed one hundred US dollars (US $100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. In those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Search Party and its officers, members, employees, agents, and service providers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in any way connected with your access to or use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party right.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, with or without notice, for any reason — including breach of these Terms. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law.

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or your use of the Site are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. You agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these Terms will be filed exclusively in the state or federal courts located in California, and you consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of those courts for the purposes of litigating any such action.

We may revise these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Site after revised Terms become effective constitutes your acceptance of those revised Terms.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of that right or provision.
